I've for a long time used reusable bags. But I occasionally don't have reusable bags with me, and it really bothers me how many darn plastic bags they shops bag things in. If I was paying 10 cents a bag, they darn well would be using a lot less plastic bags.

Heck the last time I was shopping to go camping, I swear they used 20 bags. I don't need 20 plastic bags for $50 in groceries I picked up to go camping. You don't have to wrap every meat item in a separate bag, or only put one or two things in each bag. When I use a cloth or another reusable tote bag, I rarely fill more then 1-2 bags, especially with my larger bags. Then again, with plastic, the bags fall apart if you put more then an object or two in them.

Plastic bags are handy when camping. They do help keep things neat to a bit in the cooler, and are great for putting the day's burnable camp garbage in when camping. But they sheer amount of plastic bags stores give you is just offensive.
